Joomla vs Wordpress - Making The Right Choice

Joomla vs Wordpress - Making The Right Choice

Quick Intro to Joomla

Joomla is a content management system that makes building beautiful, content-rich, and powerful websites for small and medium-sized businesses a lot easier than it would have otherwise been using old systems like Adobe Dreamweaver. The best part is that it's features can be extended with the use of appropriate extensions to create any type of website imaginable. It is easy to use, free, and has a large expanding community of developers and users.

Wordpress as a CMS


There are other applications in the CMS space that contend with Joomla in several aspects - the most popular being Wordpress. Wordpress - built initially as a blog publishing tool - has now developed into what could be called a micro-cms. The very same reason why it isn't suitable for large applications and business sites. It is not fit to handle such sites because the main idea behind it's development is contrary to that - a quick tool to get your words out - although plugins have made it possible to use it like a CMS, it does not have the same level of functionality and power that you will find with the latest version of Joomla.


Why Joomla Does The Job Better - Created as a CMS Right From The Start


There is a reason why popular and corporate websites prefer Joomla over Wordpress. By simply following their thoughts which led to the eventual creation of their site on the Joomla platform, one could conclude that they deemed Joomla fit and powerful enough to handle a website like theirs because it possesses all the features which Wordpress probably lacks.  Updating a Joomla website is intuitive and has a small learning curve.  Some corporations using Joomla for their websites are: Harvard University, Ihop Chain, and MTV Networks Quizilla. Joomla can power all types of websites regardless of their size.


Powerful Extensions


What web designers and webmasters can do with Joomla is only limited by their imagination. A lot of free and paid extensions are already available to add any feature required to create any type of website. With over 9000 extensions in the Joomla extensions directory, this only goes further to prove the point. Extensions spread over different categories and custom extensions can be developed. An example of a Joomla extension is the Custom CSS Module which can be used to give unique styles to individual pages different from other pages on the site. Joomla extensions can do much more than wordpress plugins.
 A Growing Community
At any given time, there are well over 200,000 community users and contributors. The community helps with the development of new extensions, features, fixing and solving problems and more. The forum is active and ongoing developments are being made all the time to ensure that Joomla continues to meet the needs of it's users.


Usage and Updates


Joomla is easy to use even for beginners. It is updated regularly to improve it's performance and fix bugs, if any. The latest version released was 2.5.2. With Joomla, there is no need to worry about security issues, unlike Wordpress sites which are sometimes prone to hacking.
  Joomla can power standard sites, intranets, shopping carts, etc. It doesn't come as a surprise that it was nominated the best open source content management system in 2011. While some business websites will do fine with Wordpress, Joomla is clearly the perfect choice. Not to mention, websites built with Joomla generally look better than Wordpress websites.
